the hardest questions that I see are those of ethics and values!. is it truly okay to steal bread to feed one's starving family!? if so, is it okay to steal a bottle of cheap wine from a rich man who's stepped on little guys to obtain his status for one's family!? expensive wine!? an xbox!?
ethics, unless you're a staunch absolute believer that absolutes exist and that you have them, has no clearly definable lines at all!. are we all supposed to look after ourselves only, or do we have responsibility somewhere!? what do i owe the people around me!? what about the people in third world countries; do i owe them anything!? do i owe anything to the environment!? do i have a right, or even an imperative to destroy anyone who would destroy the environment!? at what point am i allowed to take life, and to what degree must i preserve it!?
abortion and gay marriage ultimately reduce to philosophy (although the latter of those tends to be more militant religion versus sensible people, but religion is a philosophy too mind you)!.
those are definitely the biggest issues i know of though!. don't fret if you feel yourself changing your viewpoint about them daily :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

In my opinion, most philosophical questions are really controversial because most questions threaten our comfort in our set of ideas, especially concerning political theories, money, morals, God, ethics, our state of being, creation, and whether or not there is in fact meaning!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Philosiphers such as Aristotle and Plato we're concerned with the creation of life!. Which leads to the question of the creation of the earth!. Which leads to the Question of the creation of God, (whom is created by humans!)!. And then leads to the Creation of the Universe!.
Nothing comes from Nothing! What created the universe!!?! What are we floating in!?
But hey, wisest is she who knows she knows nothing at all right!? ;)Www@QuestionHome@Com

any about God or how we came to be!.!.!. Where did God come from (who made God!.!.!.!?) Why would God's son have to do anything (die for sins, if he's God's son - why couldn't he forgive us and help us be better, instead of being crucified - and how is that going to help any of us!? I can't believe a man was tortured to death thousands of years ago for me - as if he thought my name during the torture!. No one would believe that if they first heard the story as an educated adult!.!.!. and Americans make fun of Hindu's - ha! The Bible has some "hard to swallow" stories - unless you're a whale!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
